Staffing & Managed Services

Have you been preparing your organization to slingshot into new markets and grow revenues? Like you, leading organizations use this time to evaluate their business; optimize their current practices, and build for the future to balance cash flow, cost, investments and revenue targets to achieve their business performance objectives.

Indicators show organizations are growing and will be deciding on staffing options to support new growth plans. Will you take the managed services approach or the staff-augmentation approach? The pros and cons of both approaches should be considered when embarking on major technology or business optimization initiatives.

Ÿ Focus on resource verse results. You get boots on the ground verse a methodology. You are responsible for the methodology of how you will deliver.

Ÿ Training you have to invest time in training the temporary staffŸ Scale – you usually do not gain any economies of scale because it’s a resource-centric modelŸ Cost models are structured differently for staff augmentation as the market determines rates for specific skill sets and

because they are “purchased” there is typically little leverage.Ÿ Management overhead – As staff augmentation grows the amount of supervisory overhead increases.

Ÿ Control – you retain control of your resources and their day-to- day effort.

Ÿ Risk: – at the enterprise level, and across many risk elements, staff augmentation is less risky.

Ÿ Commercial and Contract requirements – much less demanding and stringent.

Ÿ Dial up/Dial down – you can increase or decrease resources relatively at will depending on the size of your need.

Ÿ Internal resistance is typically much less compared with the decision to outsource.
